“Any health care funding plan that is just equitable civilized and humane must, must redistribute wealth from the richer among us to the poorer and the less fortunate. Excellent health care is by definition redistributional," Donald Berwick said. Berwick is Obama's nominee to run the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services

Then lets all stop working and wait for our redistribution. Hey, isn’t that what Greece is doing?

Our commie clowns are commie clowns. Don’t they know the Soviets already tried this crap.

[Sacajaweau]

Geez....We practically fund half the world now...

[ZULU]

They want to redistribute health too.

How much longer are we going to have to put up with this clown and his peanut gallery of social freaks??

[Mr. K]

Remember when talk about ‘sharing the wealth’ would get you a serious ass-beating?

[equalitybeforethelaw]

One more reason not to buy bammycare insurance. I think I will wait for the poor to take care of me. Buy gold, guns, and canned goods folks, when the entitled figure out bammy is full of empty promises there is gonna be hell to pay.

[MrB]

Don’t forget farmland...

Show me anyone around Obama who would be considered “normal”. Anyone? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

Must Redistribute Wealth = Marxism.

We are under attack, our house values have declined, value of the dollar, savings, attack on quality healthcare. This group wants to move US wealth to other countries also. NO! Keep what you earn. The elections are crucial.

[RockinRight]

At what point can we purge them from the country?

[opentalk]

Donald Berwick, a Harvard University professor and leading advocate for improving health-care quality and efficiency.

If confirmed by the Senate, Berwick will play a pivotal -- and challenging -- role in implementing the recently enacted health-care overhaul legislation. The agency, which is part of the Department of Health and Human Services, must oversee a massive expansion of Medicaid, the federal-state insurance program for the poor, with an estimated 16 million people expected to join its rolls by 2020.

The senate needs to stop this.

[Buckeye McFrog]

finally, an HONEST member of the Obama Administration!

[SusaninOhio]

Make them go away! Now!

I can’t take much more of this crap.

[jveritas]

Another communist appointee by Obama, why should we be surprised?

PS: Of course those communists and socialists want to redistribute other people wealth and they will take their commissions in the wealth redistribution act.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

These idiots truly believe they can destroy an economy that actually produces things that people want and need, replace it with an economy that redistributes imaginary things that no longer get produced, and then escape any personal consequences.

They have a nasty surprise coming.

[DarthVader]

Let the cockroaches come out of the woodwork. It will be easier for us to round them up and sterilize them.

[MrB]

I said earlier that the people like the Southern Poverty Law Center that are “making lists” should know that other people are making some mental lists as well.

[Waco]

I bet Buffet and Gates can hardly wait for 97% of their wealth to be confiscated in return for a guarenteed gov’t bond.

[Art in Idaho]

Right out of the Marxist/commie playbook. . . I hope everyone is educated enough by November 2 so there is a complete rout of the commiecrats. Keep sending those emails around and talking with people. . . it sure has people talking around here.

[Venturer]

Redistribution was the plan from scratch. There isnt anything in the Health Care Bill that will lower costs. Its all a big scam to redistribute wealth
